Unit 1 Lab: Securing the Router for Administrative Access Topology Note : ISR G1 devices use FastEthernet interfaces instead of GigabitEthernet…. Note: Perform all tasks on both R1 and R3. The procedures and output for R1 are shown here. Task 1: Configure and Encrypt Passwords on Routers R1 and R3. Step 1: Configure a minimum password length for all router passwords. Use the security passwords command to set a minimum password length of 10 characters. R1(config)# security passwords min-length 10 Step 2: Configure the enable secret password. Configure the enable secret encrypted password on both routers. Use the type 9 (SCRYPT) hashing algorithm. R1(config)# enable algorithm-type scrypt secret cisco12345 Exercise Question 1. How does configuring an enable secret password help protect a router from being compromised by an attack?
